The crisis currently affecting the Lake Chad Basin states results from a complex combination of factors, including conflict with Non-State Armed Groups, extreme poverty, underdevelopment and a changing climate, which together have triggered significant displacement of populations. As of 3 May 2019, Cameroon, Chad, Niger and Nigeria were hosting an estimated 4,454,343 affected individuals made up of Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs), Refugees (both in- and out-of-camp), Returnees (Former IDPs and Returnees from abroad) and Third Country Nationals (TCNs). 79 per cent of the affected population (representing 3,533,147 individuals) were located in Nigeria, while 11 per cent resided in Cameroon (509,253 individuals), 6 per cent in Niger (248,887 individuals) and 4 per cent in Chad (189,796 individuals).

On 2 May 2019, IOM carried out an assessment to ascertain the level of damage sustained in camps and camp-like settings due to rainfall the previous day. 16 camps where affected in Kaga, Dikwa, Gwoza and Bama.  The worst-hit of the camps assessed was the 20 Housing Unit Camp in Gwoza LGA with 177 damaged shelters and 215 partially damaged shelters which has left and estimated  392 HH without shelter.

The DTM Monthly Regional Update contains consolidated summary updates and highlights from DTM field operations. This document covers updates from the regional network of flow monitoring of migrants, as well as the tracking and monitoring of internal displacement in the countries. It is published on a monthly basis and covers the West and Central Africa Region.

Ce septième rapport de la DTM donne un aperçu de la situation dans la Région du Lac au Tchad où les déplacements de population sont dus à l’insécurité liée aux violences des groupes extrémistes armés. Les données représentées dans ce rapport ont été collectées dans 185 localités accueillant des personnes mobiles dans la province du Lac. La DTM a identifié une population déplacée totale de 174 340 individus : 130 472 Personnes Déplacées Internes (PDI), 41 199 retournés et 2 669 ressortissants de pays tiers (RPT). 100% des populations déplacées le sont en raison du conflit armé qui a lieu dans la région. 67% de la population déplacée est composée de mineurs ayant entre 0 et 17 ans, tandis que Les personnes de plus de 60 ans représentent 3% des personnes déplacées. 75% des personnes déplacées identifiées vivent dans des camps ou sites alors que 25% vivent au sein de communautés hôtes.

Following the onset of armed conflict on 04 April 2019 in South Tripoli, at least 10,110 families (approximately 50,550 individuals) have been displaced from their homes. Since DTM’s last update on 29 April, an additional 1,725 displaced families (approximately 8,625 individuals) were identified. Currently, over 3,330 migrants in detention centers in Tripoli and nearby areas are also considered to be at high risk of being affected by the conflict.

Of the assessed returnee population, 11 per cent (472,350 individuals) are living in high severity conditions across 279 locations. Ninewa and Salah al-Din governorates host the highest number of returnees living in these conditions with  213, 372 and 187,812 individuals, respectively. This proportion is relatively similar to the previous rounds published in September and January 2019, which had respectively 11% and 10% of returnees in this category. The locations of return located in Al-Ba’aj District in Ninewa present the highest severity scores: there are very severe conditions in all of these locations, which host 10,722 returnees followed by Tooz District in Salah al-Din and Sinjar District in Ninewa, which are hosting 28,542 individuals (73%) in eight locations and 43,476 individuals (73%) in 40 locations, respectively.  

In November 2018, the International Organization for Migration’s (IOM) Displacement Tracking Matrix (DTM) Unit, the Returns Working Group (RWG), and Social Inquiry, with input and support from the Ministry of Migration and Displacement (MoMD) within the Federal Government of Iraq, published an in-depth analysis on “Reasons to Remain: Categorizing Protracted Displacement in Iraq”. The aim of this report was to build a categorization framework for protracted displacement as the basis for future study, monitoring and policy development in relation to the resolution of internal displacement across all populations affected by the conflict in Iraq. While the report defined categories of obstacles to return and provided estimates of the proportion of Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) falling in each of the categories, it did not identify where the IDPs facing these obstacles can be found, and most importantly, where they are from. To address this, IOM DTM completed an analysis on IDPs’ main areas of origin along multiple indicators, which allowed a better understanding of obstacles and reasons for non-return as well as the return outlook in these areas. DTM also completed a similar and complementary analysis on IDPs’ main areas of displacement, presented in the document “Protracted Displacement Study: An In-Depth Analysis of the Main Districts of Displacement”. As IDPs originate from 49 districts, the analysis focuses solely on the districts where the majority of the IDP caseload come from. Using the latest available DTM dataset at the time of the analysis (Dec 2018), it was found that 92% of all IDPs originate from just 23 district across 7 governorates. Each district of origin has been analyzed separately and is presented in the format of a factsheet following a common structure to facilitate comparison. This reference note, containing an overall presentation of the analyzed indicators and key findings, aims to explain and complement the factsheets.
